Abstract

The purpose of this article is to unearth the dimensions of quality of work life and work–life balance and to find the impact of the quality of work life on work–life balance. Data have been gathered from 89 managers of public and private sector banks in India using a convenience sampling method and analysed using principal component analysis and multiple regression analysis. Both qualities of work life and work–life balance are multidimensional constructs. Results indicate that the productivity dimension of a work–life balance was influenced by all dimensions of quality of work life except grievance redress. Further, the skill deployment dimension was predicted by all three dimensions of quality of work life. However, none of the quality of work life dimensions had any relation with the efficiency dimension of work–life balance. The study will help managers to ensure employee productivity and skill deployment by enhancing the quality of work life. The study has relevance for employee welfare and organizational output. The study has unearthed new dimensions in quality of work life and work–life balance and has established new relationships.

工作生活质量与工作生活平衡

本文的目的是挖掘工作生活质量和工作生活平衡的维度，并找到工作生活质量对工作生活平衡的影响。数据已从印度公共和私营部门银行的89名经理收集使用方便的抽样方法和分析使用主成分分析和多元回归分析。工作生活的质量和工作与生活的平衡都是多维的结构。结果表明，工作生活平衡的生产力维度受到工作生活质量各维度的影响，但不包括申诉。此外，技能部署维度可以被工作生活质量的三个维度所预测。而工作生活质量维度与工作生活平衡效率维度均无相关性。该研究将帮助管理者通过提高工作生活质量来确保员工的生产力和技能部署。本研究对员工福利与组织产出具有相关性。这项研究发现了工作生活质量和工作与生活平衡的新维度，并建立了新的关系。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Human Values is a peer-reviewed tri-annual journal devoted to research on values. Communicating across manifold knowledge traditions and geographies, it presents cutting-edge scholarship on the study of values encompassing a wide range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Reading values broadly, the journal seeks to encourage and foster a meaningful conversation among scholars for whom values are no esoteric resources to be archived uncritically from the past. Moving beyond cultural boundaries, the Journal looks at values as something that animates the contemporary in its myriad manifestations: politics and public affairs, business and corporations, global institutions and local organisations, and the personal and the private.
